Herb SilvermanThe Unflappable Atheist

In both book and blog, Herb Silverman, the ”unflappable atheist,” gives his original take on today’s most timely issues in the bumpy crossroads among atheism, religion, and politics.

Why did this mild-mannered mathematics professor and liberal, Jewish, Yankee atheist decide to be a candidate for governor of South Carolina? In his book, Candidate Without a Prayer, Herb tells that story and its unexpected results: Founding the Secular Coalition for America to unite nontheists across the country. Writing a regular column for the “On Faith” page of the Washington Post. Even finding a wife.

Herb Silverman is one of the most original and humorous voices in the secular movement today. We hope you enjoy this website and look forward to your comments.
